From a distance, a huge entity with wings could be seen flying towards Satoshi and the rest of his group. By now, they've already arrived at the center of the map so they didn't have to worry about getting kicked out of bounds. All that they need to do is stay there until time runs out. But then again, it's much harder to survive than to stay inbound.

Fortunately, Kuroe had rested quite enough and she was able to use her psychic abilities once again. She then scanned the entire expanse, finding no first-years nearby, she sighed in relief and announced to everyone that it was okay to take a break. Trusting her words, everyone in the group collapsed as they gathered around. As for Satoshi, he grabbed a few things from Orb Oboros, and pretty soon, a bonfire was lit and everyone gathered around it. Satoshi then pulled out marshmallows and sausages so everyone could have a momentary picnic together. No one complained nor berated Satoshi when he brought out food since all of them were running out of energy.

As the clock ticked, the group continued eating while waiting for other first-years to get there and engage them in combat. But what they didn't know was that everyone was still preoccupied with their own battles that they didn't have time to form a group and lunch  a full-frontal attack to Satoshi and the others. By now, most of the groups have already been singled out and the ones left were those who work alone. There were still two or more groups here and there but they're not that active compared to when the free-for-all just started.

Also, after they saw what happened to the three groups who tried to attack Satoshi, they decided not to go through the same motions. They concluded that they might end up just like the groups who were sent out of bounds by Satoshi.

"What do we do now? Do we just wait here? What if they deem us unqualified for the inter-high just because we rested?" Hiroshi brought up. Quite ironically, he was on his third stick of sausage and there were no signs of him stopping his binge.

"No, we've done more than enough as it is. Right now we just have to survive." Shiroi responded while stealing glances towards Satoshi. She didn't know what to answer since Satoshi had been silent all this time.

Just like Satoshi, Kuroe didn't speak either. She didn't have to since she could read their minds. She almost chuckled out loud upon hearing Hiroshi's inferiority complex surfacing as he compared himself to Satoshi. 'Did he do better than me? Of course, he did! Why did even have to save us right then and there? Stupid, why did I even join this group. Satoshi would just overshadow my performance. No, I'm the great Hiroshi, my superpower is that of earth and fire. There's no way I can lose to someone who just controls pets or something. Arghhh! What if I didn't get chosen as a candidate in the upcoming inter-high?! That would suck big time.' All those thoughts were heard by Kuroe, word for word.

Suddenly, Kuroe's attention was directed towards an unidentified object which was closing in on them like a homing missile. It wasn't that fast, but based on how it's approaching them, Kuroe could tell that it's a big entity. Whatever it was, it certainly posed a threat to their group. "I sense something. Satoshi, to your right, can you see it?" She announced, getting everyone's attention and directing it to the mysterious flying entity which was about to reach them in ten seconds at the maximum.

Satoshi noticed it as soon as he looked towards the general direction where Kuroe pointed. Of course, he'd seen and played too many games to know that what's flying towards them is a common final boss or a common enemy in games. It breathes fire, had wings that could decapitate anyone who touches it. It has a powerful hide and a tail that could sweep an army. But what's more noticeable is its bright color and its wingspan which flaunts its glory and majestic size.

A dragon.

RAAWGHHRR!!!

A shriek echoed throughout the entire training area as the dragon breathed blue flames which were aimed towards Satoshi and his group. Shiroi didn't waste any time blocking it with a thick block of ice. Kuroe, who was still in combat mentality, used her psychic powers to keep the water that melted from the ice and use it to block the next spires of flames that came out of the dragon's mouth. One look and Kuroe already knew that the dragon was none other than Siril.

"No wonder he didn't attack  back then. He probably wanted to get rid of his classmates so he'll have a better chance of being chosen as a candidate. He's good." Kuroe said to herself before handing the water to Satoshi.

"Thanks!" Satoshi responded, summoning his familiar 'Droplet' and causing it to mix with the water. Just like before, he could finally control huge amounts of water so no one had to worry about the flames that came out of the dragon's mouth.

"That's Kobayashi," Kuroe announced to everyone.

"You mean from that dragon maid anime or something? Why is she here?! That's a classic series though." Hiroshi exclaimed as the ground melted on his feet. Previously, Satoshi overshadowed his performance by defeating all the groups that attacked them. That's why Hiroshi wanted to redeem himself by working together with everyone. As much as he preferred flying solo, he knew that doing his own thing would just affect his overall performance negatively. He may be arrogant, but he's not stupid.

"No, you idiot. Kobayashi, Kobayashi Siril." Kuroe announced for the second time. Finally, everyone was on the same page.

Even Satoshi assumed that Kuroe was talking about the classic series when she announced that. Hiroshi was just a step quicker in asking the question. He was called stupid though so Satoshi sighed in relief that he wasn't the first one to ask the question. Instead, he just swallowed his saliva, brought out Orb Oboros for the second time, and summoned his White Lion.

Although Satoshi didn't know the full extent of the White Lion's capabilities (the only thing he knew is that the White Lion could fly, could shoot lightning from its mouth, and is fast), he was very confident that the White Lion could take on Kobayashi Siril. After all, they're almost the same size when it comes down to it.

Feeling his blood rushing due to excitement, Kobayashi Siril let out a roar as he accelerated even faster towards Satoshi's group. He was large enough and so he believed that he could take on everyone in the group. Like a meteor hurtling down the sky, he used all his weight to bore down towards Satoshi.

But then, a large figure appeared before him and headbutted him so hard his skull shook even though he's got exceptionally thick skull whenever he's in his dragon form. After shaking his head, he realized that another beast was in front of him— a White Lion to be exact.

Just like dragons, lions have existed in legends which were passed down to generation to generation. While all of these legends were fictional in the past, it was always depicted that the dragons are the superior race. Even in video games, dragons would always be the last boss and the lions were always depicted as stylish mounts adorned with expensive ornaments while their master shows them off to everyone. That's why Siril overestimated himself. 'There's no way a lion could defeat a dragon, right?'

With that thought in mind, Siril tried to outmaneuver the White Lion by accelerating to one side and instantly changing directions. He zigzagged in the sky while shooting columns of fire from his mouth. But every single time, the White Lion would deflect his attacks and it could even keep up with his speed. Not only that, he also had to dodge the occasional ice spikes from Shiroi, and fireballs from Hiroshi who were keen on hitting him no matter what. It took all of his being just to dodge every single thing.

By the time five minutes passed, Siril was already on the verge of fainting due to exhaustion. And at that moment, Satoshi took his chance and summoned his Windfan from Orb Oboros. The fan then blew a huge gust of wind towards Siril, causing him to lose balance mid-air.

Helplessly, he spiraled towards the ground. Seeing his chance, the White Lion let out a huge roar and shot a powerful blue bolt towards him, electrocuting him in an instant. And as if that wasn't enough, the White Lion bit on one of his wings and pinned him on the ground. Kuroe decided to take her chance as well and activated her paralysis status effect to further pin the huge creature.

"That was a great fight albeit being one-sided. I guess you got m— " Siril admitted but just before he could finish his sentence, an announcement resonated throughout the entire training center.

TIME'S UP!
